Applying network coding and opportunistic routing can significantly improve the throughput performance of wireless multi-hop networks, but a mismatch problem still exists among the upper flow rate, routing and lower transmission resource scheduling. This paper models the throughput optimization as a network utility function maximization in wireless multi-hop networks. By applying Lagrangian dual decomposition...
Although, it was shown that NC is a promising technique to improve the throughput; especially for multicast environment; it also bears negative side-effects (e.g., high decoding delay). Since streaming video are usually subject to strict delay constraints, high decoding delay must be resolved to enhance the performance of the NC schemes. To overcome this issue, this paper presents a new scheme named...
Energy is a scarce resource in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Network coding (NC) has been proposed recently as a means to reduce the number of transmissions and energy consumption. In this paper, we introduce energy consumption control into network coding to further enhance its performance. We propose a Sliding Window Network Coding for Energy Efficient in MANETs (SWNC-EE). The performance of the...
Network coding has shown the promise of significance throughput improvement. In this paper, we study the throughput of two-hop wireless network coding and explore how the maxi-mum throughput can be achieved under a random medium access scheme. In this paper, the problem of the performance of COPE type network coding under dual source coding architecture is solved. An Embedded Markov Chain Model for...
The individual applications of network coded opportunistic routing and successive interference cancellation have been proven with significant improvement on throughput performance of wireless multi-hop networks, but there lacks practical optimization on their combination application. Based on a TDMA system, this paper models the throughput maximization as network utility function maximization problem...

Network coding is a fundamental tool that enables higher network capacity and lower complexity in routing algorithms, by encouraging the mixing of information flows in the middle of a network. Implementing network coding in the core Internet is subject to practical concerns, since Internet routers are often overwhelmed by packet forwarding tasks, leaving little processing capacity for coding operations...
We investigate the potential gains of Physical-Layer Network Coding (PLNC) in multi-hop wireless networks. Physical-Layer Network Coding was first introduced as a solution to increase the throughput of a two-way relay channel communication. Unlike most wireless communications techniques which try to avoid collisions, PLNC allows two simultaneous transmissions to a common receiver. Such transmitted...
This paper studies the throughput performance of a two-way energy harvesting relaying system. Network Coding and Energy Harvesting are promising techniques that can improve the transmission efficiency and the energy efficiency of wireless systems, respectively. In particular, we focus on the energy harvesting system with the power splitting-based relaying (PSR) protocol, and consider both the amplify-and-forward...
Network-coded (NCed) automatic repeat request (ARQ) techniques have been shown to provide significant throughput improvements over basic ARQ systems in two-way wireless systems. Most results derived so far, however, used the assumption of no extra overhead. In practical systems, NCed-ARQ requires more information exchange between base-station and end-nodes, and therefore it is crucial to study the...
Multi-path TCP has recently shown great potential to take advantage of the rich path diversity in data center networks (DCN) to increase transmission throughput. However, the small flows, which take a large fraction of data center traffic, will easily get a timeout when split onto multiple paths. Moreover, the dynamic congestions and node failures in DCN will exacerbate the reorder problem of parallel...
In wireless multi-relay cooperative communication, the relay node forwards the received packets to the source node and destination node to complete the two-way collaborative communication. However, the problem of how to control and manage multiple relay nodes to access the channel has been a research focus. In this case, it makes use of the number of received packets by relay node to take a different...
It is known that there exists a multiple-unicast network which has a rate 1 linear network coding solution if and only if the characteristic of the finite field belongs to a given finite or co-finite set of primes. In this paper, we present a generalization of this result for a linear network coding solution of any rate. Specifically, we show that for any non-zero positive rational number k/n, there...
Due to asynchronous packet transmissions and rate mismatch among different coding flows in existing opportunistic network coding architectures, such as COPE, the amount of packets which can be coded together may be insufficient and thus the performance gain of network coding cannot be fully exploited. One feasible solution for this problem is to make coding nodepurposely delay some packet transmissions...
Random linear network coding (RLNC) has been shown to efficiently improve the network performance in terms of reducing transmission delays and increasing the throughput in broadcast and multicast communications. However, it can result in increased storage and computational complexity at the receivers end. In our previous work we considered the broadcast transmission of large file to N receivers. We...
In recent years, a significant amount of research has been conducted to explore the benefits of network coding in different scenarios, from both theoretical and simulation perspectives. In this paper, we utilize queueing theory to propose an analytical framework for bidirectional unicast flows in multi-hop wireless mesh networks, and study throughput of inter-flow network coding. We analytically determine...
This paper proposes a joint design of the routing strategy over the fronthaul network and the transmission strategy over the wireless network in a downlink cloud radio access network (C-RAN), in which the remote radio heads (RRHs) are connected to the central processor (CP) via multi-hop routers. The data-sharing strategy is adopted, where the CP multicasts each user's data to all the RRHs serving...
Linear network coding (LNC) is a promising technology that can increase network throughput, improve transmission robustness and provide data confidentiality. In this paper, we investigate the optimal transmission topology construction and LNC design for secure multicast, i.e., the Integer Secure Multicast (ISM) problem. The ISM problem aims to find the transmission topology with integral link rates...
Rateless erasure code (REC) is an erasure code, where the encoder generates a potentially infinite number of encoded symbols and the original message can be reconstructed from a sufficient number of correctly received packets. Many REC-based transmission protocols have been proposed for improving network throughput in lossy channel. However, state-of-the-art RECs (such as LT code and Raptor code)...
Network coding (NC) enables us to mix two or more packets into a single coded packet at relay nodes and improve performances in wireless networks. Intra-session sliding window network coding is used at the source nodes and inter-session network coding is employed at the relay node to combine the recovered source packets of source nodes. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the network-coded...
